- Description
- The U.S. Army seeks to acquire and field an existing Extended Range/Multi-Purpose (ERMP) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system that provides the best overall value to meet the military commander??????s need for near real time, highly accurate, sustain able capability for over the horizon/hill Reconnaissance, Surveillance, and Target Acquisition (RSTA), Command and Control, Communication Relay, Signals Intelligence (SIGNIT), Electronics Warfare, Attack, Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) detection, battle damage assessment (BDA) and special operations missions during peacetime and all levels of war against defended/denied factions over extended periods of time. The Increment I system must be Key Performance Parameters (KPP) compliant by Initial Operation, Testing and Evaluation (IOT&E). On 29 March 2004, U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command (AMCOM) released to industry a draft Request for Proposal (RFP) Number W58RGZ-04-R-0467 on a full and open competitive basis for the U.S. Army ERMP UAV System. Draft RFP W58RGZ-04-R-0467 was issued for the purpose of obtaining industry feedback on its content and acquisition approach. Further amendments to the draft RFP may be issued as necessary until the formal RFP is issued. On 05 May 2004, AMCOM conducted a pre-proposal conference in Huntsville , Alabama to answer industry questions and comments concerning the ERMP acquisition. AMCOM plans to issue formal RFP Number W58RGZ-04-R-0674 on a full and open competitive basis for the U.S. Army ERMP UAV System on or about 05 August 2004 with proposals due on or about 20 September 2004. A best value approach will be used in source selection. The competition will be conducted in two phases, with the first phase resulting in contracts awarded to up to two offerors to demonstrate their system??????s capabilities. The second phase will resu lt in a contract awarded to one offeror to enter into a System Design and Development phase and production of test assets.
